== Summary ==


'''Hair Manipulation''' is the ability to control hair, generally one's own, and use it in combat, generally to attack others with thick tendrils of hair, though many users can manipulate their own hair more precisely to make more complex constructs. The hair of many users is also prehensile, allowing them to manipulate and lift objects.

'''Hair Manipulation''' is the ability to control and manipulate hair, most commonly one’s own, for various purposes. Users often utilize their hair in combat, employing it as a versatile weapon through thick, tendril-like extensions. Advanced users may demonstrate precision, shaping their hair into intricate constructs for offensive, defensive, or utilitarian purposes. Additionally, hair manipulated in this way is typically prehensile, granting the user the ability to lift, move, and manipulate objects. The effectiveness and range of this ability depend on the user's skill and the strength of their hair. Advanced users may demonstrate large-scale hair constructs or fine-tuned precision, while others might be limited to basic manipulations.

Background

Hair Manipulation is the ability to control and manipulate hair, most commonly one’s own, for various purposes. Users often utilize their hair in combat, employing it as a versatile weapon through thick, tendril-like extensions. Advanced users may demonstrate precision, shaping their hair into intricate constructs for offensive, defensive, or utilitarian purposes. Additionally, hair manipulated in this way is typically prehensile, granting the user the ability to lift, move, and manipulate objects. The effectiveness and range of this ability depend on the user's skill and the strength of their hair. Advanced users may demonstrate large-scale hair constructs or fine-tuned precision, while others might be limited to basic manipulations.

This ability is a variation of Thread Manipulation, sharing similarities in flexibility and application.

Possible Applications

  • Prehensile Hair: Control hair to grasp, lift, or manipulate objects as if using additional limbs.
  • Weapon Creation: Form sharp or heavy constructs with hair, such as tendrils, spears, or hammers, to attack enemies.
  • Defensive Constructs: Use hair to form barriers, shields, or armor for protection.
  • Entrapment: Ensnare or immobilize targets by wrapping them in strands of hair.
  • Enhanced Strength: Amplify the tensile strength of hair to hold or carry heavy objects.
  • Precision Manipulation: Shape hair into detailed and complex constructs like tools or intricate designs.
  • Growth Extension: Extend hair length beyond natural limits for greater range and versatility.
  • Self-Repair: Regenerate or repair damaged hair quickly for continuous use.

Limitations

  • May require concentration or active focus to control hair effectively.
  • Hair is susceptible to being burned, cut, or damaged by external forces.
  • Length and strength of hair may define the range and durability of the ability.
  • Overuse can lead to physical strain or potential damage to the user’s hair.
  • Some environments, such as those with intense heat or sharp objects, may hinder its effectiveness.
